Love this movie and LOVE this scene! I ordered the DVD--watched it last night--and this scene a day later still brought tears to my eyes. EXCELLENT writing and acting!
MMA Most Wanted - Great post! I'm watching the movie Vision Quest - Great part in the movie! It's true.... it's not what you say, it's what you do and you keep things in perspective!
Great inspirational movie i wrestle and now that im growining up and watching this idk if its really all about wrestling i think theres a much bigger point the author is using to convey with the sport
Truer words were never spoken!!! You can find motivation anywhere, you just have to be open to it and be willing to accept it. Truly, it's what you do in the 6 minutes!!
man this brings back memories. i was in middle school when this came out. what a motivator it was to watch this before a wrestling match. i had the biggest crush on the dark-haired chick in the movie. (linda florentine or something like that?) Thanks for the post. Beauty.
@heyaggie Yes, that's her name..........I knew it was something like that :-). To this day, she has to have the nicest butt out of all the women on the planet.........
Hey, did you know that "Kuch" (Michael E. Schoeffling) was a great wrestler in real life? He was a gold-medalist at the European Championships, and a member of the US Jr National Team.
thats what she said :P

One of the best moments in the movie. Great motivational speach, about as realistic as it gets. RIP J.C. Quinn (Elmo).

"yeah that's right, I started cryin' ." There are just some moments in life when you know jokes just aren't appropriate....that was one of 'em.

2:38 Not what you do. Its what HAPPENS in those six minutes. Might seem like a small detail, but it makes it mean so much more.

How funny that very moment is depicted in the movie "Victory" with the great Pele and his famous summersault kick.
